When going through my paperwork i noticed a form for the q80k Polymorphism, it's a mutation that limits the treatment choices you can do. It messes with the efficacy of Olysio, by knocking it down 20%.
Quickly reading this before heading out for the day was not a wise choice, because if i've learned anything from this virus, it's check, double check, and then check it again! After freaking out for a few hours while my ascities began to return i was having a hard time focusing on doing much of anything else today.
I got home and hit more websites, reading dozens of abstracts and articles looking for anything... and then i found it.
There is an exception. When Olysio is taken exclusively with Sovaldi, it does not change the efficacy.
A sigh of relief, to say the least, as i wait for my results from the 4 week blood test.
To more good news! I'll be doing some blogging for Hepmag.com, so check it out! it's a great resource to learn a lot about Hepatitis ANNNND it has a really active forum!
